Ask you self if you have ever set out on a car journey and when you arrived at your destination, could remember it’s beginning and end, but not much about what happened in the middle. You just sort of ‘automatically’ drove and responded as needed. That is because you were hypnotized. If you have ever been scared, surprised or shocked while watching a movie, it is because you were hypnotized.

What sort of suggestible are you?
26 MarThe difference in how the two types of suggestibility work lies in how a person receives information. A hyper suggestive state is created when an individual is overloaded with information, or message units. A physical suggestible person will take in information literally, and directly. An emotional suggestible takes in inferred suggestions only.
If you say to a Physical Suggestible; “Your hair looks nice today”, he will probably say; “Thank you”.
If you said the same thing to an Emotional Suggestible they would automatically think, ‘Why? What was wrong with it yesterday?”
As long as the hypnotherapist could identify the difference and tailor the approach to suit the individual, no one is immune.
Q: Who is hypnotizable and who is not?
23 MarUp until the 1960’s, it was believed that it was only possible to hypnotize 50 – 60% of the population who were in someway, susceptible to suggestion.
HMI (Hypnotherapy Motivational Institute) founder and hypnotherapist , John Kappas devised a system by which a persons suggestibility could be measured and split into one of two categories; Emotional Suggestibility, or Physical Suggestibility.
E&P revolutionized Hypnotherapy as it meant that everyone could be hypnotized.
